Communist Party of Indochina

The Communist Party of Indochina (CPI) was a communist party in French Indochina that was active from 1929 to 1930. The party was founded by Tran Van Cung and other communist youth league members, becoming the first communist cell in the country. In 1930, the short-lived party merged into the Communist Party of Vietnam after Nguyen Ai Quoc appealed for unity among the Vietnamese communist parties.
